Even when Susan is taking a huge cart through, a single queue for multiple service providers (self checkout) is always going to be theoretically more efficient than multiple queues - one per provider (one line for each cashier). The best of both worlds are places that have a single area to corral you into line, and a row of cashiers where you can go to the first available.
Yeah I really hate it when they give you self checkout but make everything function way way worse than what the cashier uses. I've never even considered shoplifting before but I've come pretty close on machines that refuse to scan because they're stuck on something 5 items ago when I'm moving quickly. Especially if it still beeps when I scan new items but refuses to actually scan it because it's hung up on something that it was slow to get the weight of -- really throws me off. It's not my job to baby your machine for you. I'm not getting paid for it. Just let me scan my shit and go.

You're not allowed to be mild mannered you idiot. Them's the rules. Now engage me in ill intentioned banter. We will meet at dawn.
That was one of the coolest games I've ever played. I still remember some random guy getting me into a private lobby and step by step teaching me how to K-Style and butterfly which just opened up an entire world of gameplay.
Wait they are on / . these days? Yeah it's been forever since I visited that site.
It's ok, I'm excited that you're excited.
The other thing is that they typically ban you for life, which is harsher even than our legal system. As a society we've agreed that it's possible to pay your debt to society, but private companies have no obligation to see things that way. It's like we've taken rules to deal with trolls in an old school Counter Strike server and tried to extend them to something that resembles a corporatocracy. It's a lot different and more meaningful to get banned from service provided by a monopolistic company compared to getting banned from your local bar, for example, when you can just go across town to the other one.
I really enjoyed Moon Hunters.
It Takes Two was absolutely excellent, but only two of you could play at once.
I usually give my comm to whoever's doing well on the imaginary leader board and moving the run along quickly.
I can't even blame you that much when places like Costco do their damnedest to get everyone in the self checkout line. If you're not paying attention it'd be easy to roll through there with stuff that doesn't really work well for self checkout.
